About Ian Bush
Ian Bush - Your Guide to a Low-Stress Real Estate Journey Ian Bush understands how stressful real estate transactions can be. After all, in many cases, buying or selling a house is the largest financial and emotional transaction anyone ever experiences. Talk about stress! "That's why I do everything I can to make my clients feel at ease", says Ian, the head of Ian Bush Homes, serving Loudoun and Fairfax Counties. In addition to his calming attitude you'll notice when you meet him, Ian's knowledge and competence are key to removing stress from the real estate equation.. He was born and raised in Northern Virginia. He knows the neighborhoods. He knows the communities. He knows where his buyers will feel at home. He also knows where and how to market the homes and the neighborhoods where they're located. His knowledge extends far beyond geography. He has become a master of the rules and regulations governing real estate transactions. His deals don't fall through because "mistakes were made"; Ian makes sure that doesn't happen. Also, he has trained with an appraiser to value houses, so his listings are sold at the right price for the market, and his buyers don't over-pay. His competence shows in his superior negotiating skills. His responsiveness to his clients' needs. His focus on putting his clients' priorities first. His being able to turn problems that arise into new opportunities. He takes the stress off his client's shoulders and puts it on his own. When he wants to relieve his own stress, Ian, his wife Maylee and his son Xander head for the beaches of Kiawah Island, SC or to Disney. "My wife and I love Disney, so we usually go there two or three times a year." Ian adds, "There's no better way to relieve stress than to be treated with the same type of attitude, knowledge and competence I provide my clients." If you're looking for a real estate agent who can take the stress off you and will treat your real estate journey with the right attitude, knowledge and competence, call or text Ian at (703) 424-3991.

FAQS
1) What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
Hiring a buyer agent costs you nothing, however the benefits are immeasurable. In the end, having me by your side will help you identify the right price to pay and the pitfalls of buying a home that may not be obvious to someone who doesn't do this every day.
2) What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
Clean, clean and clean some more! Since your home is competing with other homes for sale, you need to stand out, and that means a clean, well staged home free of smells, dirt and debris. Think of it as preparing to move, where you are deciding what to keep and throw away. The more work you do now, the less you will do later, when we sell your home!
3) What types of clients have you worked with?
I have worked with all sorts of clients. Those who were coming to the area for 2 days to find a home on a quick relocation, and those who took months to find the right home. With sellers, I have helped those who were ready to move and had a house cleaned up and those who had some serious work to do! In the latter group, I leaned in, got dirty and got to work. Selling a home is a partnership and I am here to help, however much work there is to do.
4) Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
I recently worked with a couple (Jake and Anne) that had rented a home with me over a year ago, and contacted me when they were ready to buy. Since they followed my advice and extended their lease, they were looking at homes during the winter months when things aren't as crazy as the Spring and Summer, and they paid about $15K less for their home. It made me happy to see first time home buyers get what they wanted for a better price than their neighbors.
5) How did you get started in Real Estate?
I started in real estate like everyone else, taking the classes and the exam and then choosing to hang my license with Keller Williams. It was always a passion of mine to get into real estate, but honestly, the time was never right. I am so glad I found a way to make it happen. After helping over 100 families find new homes, I know I am doing something right!
6) Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
Keller Williams really ensures that our agents know what they are doing when helping clients buy and sell homes. As the #1 training brokerage in the United States, I have attended multiple seminars on marketing, contract negotiation, real estate law and more to keep my licensure fresh. My clients benefit from that training and so will you!
